Day 8 of #septtextilelove24 : Spinning a yarn A

Day 8 of #septtextilelove24 : Spinning a yarn

A few years ago @hurdyweaver gave me a drop spindle and some wool and silk. I’ve always considered myself fairly adept with yarn, but this was on a whole new level. After an entire afternoon, I had barely spun more than 5 centimeters of yarn. Even @hurdyweaver, ever the patient teacher, began to show signs of quiet desperation.

My spindle has become a treasured little tool, but I’ll stick to weaving....

Day 7 of #septtextilelove24 : Habits

I think not finishing my projects is my only real “weaving habit”. But my excuse is that I teach a lot and I really, really, really need examples of all of these techniques. 😄

Day 6 of #Septtextilelove24 : Sparking ideas Two

Day 6 of #Septtextilelove24 : Sparking ideas

Two years ago, I visited Beat Zoderer's exhibition at @museumvoorlinden, and I instantly fell in love with his work. In every piece of his art, I saw endless opportunities to translate it into woven pieces. I was so inspired that I even bought the book about the exhibition (which I usually find too expensive).

Since then, I’ve reached for that book many times. I've made one sample piece, another warp is waiting to be finished, and many other ideas are competing for priority. But there are only 24 hours in a day …

Day 5 of #septtextilelove24 : Stitch Time for a

Day 5 of #septtextilelove24 : Stitch

Time for a bit of weaving theory :-)

One of the most frequently asked questions is the difference between inkle weaving with heddles and tablet weaving. Many people believe that tablet weaving offers a greater variety of patterns than inkle weaving, but that's not true: it's just different.
And the reason is: the stitch!

Picture 1 shows inkle weaving with heddles: individual threads move side by side, with the warp threads alternating above and below the weft thread. You always get a straight "stitch".

In tablet weaving (the second picture), the tablets are rotated, causing the threads in each tablet to twist together, forming a braided cord. The weft thread passes through the middle of this cord. The rotation creates a diagonal stitch, which can slant in two directions.

And therefore, tablet weaving doesn't offer more or fewer pattern possibilities compared to inkle weaving with heddles — just different possibilities.

Sometimes, I have to remind myself that I’m not

Sometimes, I have to remind myself that I’m not dreaming: the Lojan inkle loom is a reality! An idea has transformed into 200 looms, most of which are already reserved. What’s strange is how abstract it all felt until now. Today I spent helping in the factory, packing the first looms while the second batch was being produced. Crates full of rods, boxes of screws, stacks of frames—and by around 2 p.m., I was driving home with a car fully loaded with looms. Now, we’re just waiting for the shuttles, and then the first complete packages can finally be shipped.

Loes, Jan, Sanne, and Berry: thank you for an amazing day! @lojanwheelsandlooms

Day 4 of #septtextilelove24 : Unravelling

What to do if you make a mistake when you've already woven 8 cm? Weaving back in tablet weaving is a nightmare... Cutting out the weft thread and carefully pulling out all the small pieces is the only option. Depending on the pattern, a significant portion might unravel on its own, leaving only the borders to fix.

And then ... Take a deep breath, take another one and just start again.

Day 3 of #septtextilelove24 : Sustainable My pos

Day 3 of #septtextilelove24 : Sustainable

My post is not about recycling or natural dyed yarns, but about a "sustainable" weaving career. Weaving, while rewarding, isn't the most ergonomic profession. My hands are my most precious tools, and experiencing a neck and shoulder injury for the past five weeks (unrelated to excessive weaving!) has reminded me again of the importance of taking care of my body. It's crucial to maintain proper posture while weaving, to get outside and move, and to nourish oneself with healthy food.

I emphasize this in my weaving classes as well because I believe it's often overlooked. People are eager, excited to try one pattern after another, but it's easy to forget that our bodies are our most essential tools for sustaining a lovely hobby!

Day 2 of #septtextilelove24 : Colour combinations

Day 2 of #septtextilelove24 : Colour combinations

Last week we had Open Studio in Baarn. One of my visitors asked me how my brain works. What do I use as a start when designing a pattern: an idea, colours or the way tablets work. I really don't know: it just works. So here are two examples.

For the purple band I found the mint green in a shop. At the very moment I saw this very weird kind of yarn, I knew that had to use it as a pattern thread for the #sulawesi patterns by @saga.woolcraft together with shades of blue and purple.

For the blue band my starting point was that I would like to make a 3 colour pickup band. Not having any clue of colours and design. I took my stash to my parents and asked my father to select four colours. These are really colours I wouldn't combine, but I challenged myself to work with any colours he chose. The design "follows" the colours; it just came to my mind when I saw these.

Just a selection of two of my brain processes in choosing colour combinations. And still wondering how my brain works....

Just discovered #septtextilelove with #Septtextile

Just discovered #septtextilelove with #Septtextilelove24 organised by @seam_collective and decided to participate!

Day 1: Introduction My name is Marieke Kranenburg and I'm from The Netherlands. I'm addicted to weaving, especially tablet weaving and band weaving. Or... maybe I should say: any form of weaving, as long as I can create patterns down to the square centimeter.

I have my own studio in our backyard and I love to share my knowledge with others and to interact with other weavers. So that is my motivation to take part in this challenge. Thanks @seam_collective for organising!
